Term 4 is here… and for many neurodivergent children, the final weeks of school feel overwhelming.
 Sensory overload, unpredictable routines, assemblies, excursions, tired teachers, and emotional burnout combine into the perfect storm — leaving parents exhausted, kids dysregulated, and homes feeling tense.

In this episode, I share practical, compassionate, real-life strategies to help you guide your neurodivergent child through the end-of-year chaos with more calm and less stress.


 We unpack:

✨ Why Term 4 burnout hits ND kids so hard
 ✨ How to reduce overwhelm on unpredictable school days
 ✨ Ready-to-use scripts for communicating with teachers
 ✨ Ways to protect your child’s energy (and your own)
 ✨ What end-of-year success REALLY looks like

If your child is struggling with fatigue, big feelings, routine changes, or after-school restraint collapse — this episode gives you the tools you need to support them gently and effectively.

You’re not alone.
 You’re doing an incredible job.
